Context of Mark 6:35
33And many saw them going, and recognised them, and ran together there on foot, out of all the cities, and got [there] before them. 34And on leaving [the ship] [Jesus] saw a great crowd, and he was moved with compassion for them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. And when it was already late in the day, his disciples coming to him say, The place is desert, and it is already late in the day; 36send them away that they may go into the country and villages around, and buy themselves bread, for they have not anything they can eat. 37And he answering said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they say to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them to eat?
